THE
THREE PEAKS CHALLENGE
|
|
Race
Info:
Carl
Wilhelm Schneeberger first decided in 1897 that ascending
Cape Town's 3 Peaks all in one day was a good idea. Today
on the first Saturday of November each year we commemorate
that feat by taking up the challenge of ascending Devil's
Peak, Table Mountain, via Platteklip Gorge to Maclear's Beacon
and finally Lion's Head, returning to Greenmarket square in
the city center after each peak.
The challenge is now an annual event cursed and loved by most
who attempt it.
